OPSEC - Navy Operations Security

Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.

DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.

DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Comment by justinmom on March 10, 2011 at 9:36pm: P.S. My son is in Ship 3, Division 149...anyone else have an SR in this group?

Comment by justinmom on March 10, 2011 at 9:34pm: Finally got the form letter with 4 short sentences. Son's first sentence " Hey Mom and Dad make sure to pay my rent on the first of every month." Glad to see his head for finances has not completely escaped. His PIR is 4/29. Would love to know sooner if he is a grad and go (i.e. leaving on Sat for Pensacola A School or if he has a couple of days. Letter was sort of vague on this. I miss my SR!

Comment by Danyelle, Navy Wife :) on March 10, 2011 at 9:03pm: dayciavu- that is awesome! i'm so happy to finally know a date. I see you're from va beach. Me too!
